From the Principal’s desk:

A reminder that the Christmas Concert will take place on Thursday, 20th December here in the school as follows:

9.30 a.m:         Junior Infants, Senior Infants, Rang 1 and Rang 2

11.00 a.m:       Rang 3, Rang 4, Rang 5 and Rang 6.

A huge thank you to you all for the generous donations for our festive hampers this year for Focus Ireland. The response was incredible – and has been our most generous collection to date! All boxes were delivered to Focus Ireland yesterday morning. As well as donating to a good cause, the hamper collection raises awareness amongst the children of the plight of homelessness and the right for everyone to have a place to call home. Thank you to all the staff and the Student Council for organising this within the classes and to Ms. Ryan for coordinating the project this year. Also thank you to Clodagh (Rowan’s mum – R3) and Mary who dropped all the boxes to Focus Ireland for us.
